IMPACT FACTOR (IF)

 

It is one of the quantitative tools for ranking, evaluating, categorizing and comparing journals. The impact factor measures the fequency with which the article in a journal has been cited in a particular year or period.

The values of IF indicators are included in Journal Citation Reports (JCR) database by Clarivate Analytics that is available on the Web of Science platform. The first edition of the JCR database was published in 1975, and each year in June they present the subsequent values of IF indicators for the previous year.
